"The Plastic Pipe Institute recommends against
the use of thermoplastic pipe to transport com-
pressed air or other compressed gases in
exposed above ground locations, e.g. in exposed
plant piping." (I)
Sullube should not be used with PVC piping sys-
tems. It may affect the bond at cemented joints.
Certain other plastic materials may also be affect-
ed.
(I) Plastic Pipe Institute, Recommendation B,
Adopted January 19, 1972.
Maintenance of all other components is still recom-
mended as indicated in the Operator's Manual.

may occur, the fluid change interval must be
reduced to 300 hours maximum. A non-detergent
fluid with rust, oxidation and foam inhibitors and
good water separation characteristics should be
used.
DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT TYPES OF FLUIDS.
Contamination of non-detergent mineral fluids with
traces of detergent motor fluids may lead to opera-
tional problems such as foaming, filter plugging, ori-
fice or line plugging.
Flush system when switching lubricant brands.
When ambient conditions exceed those noted or if
conditions warrant use of "extended" life lubricants
contact Sullair for recommendation.

3.3 LUBRICATION GUIDE- 24KT FLUID

Sullair 24KT compressors are filled with a fluid
which rarely needs to be changed. In the event a
change of fluid is required, use only Sullair 24KT
fluid.
Mixing of other lubricants within the compressor
unit will void all warranties
Sullair recommends that a 24KT sample be taken at
the first filter change and sent to the factory for
analysis. This is a free service. The sample kit with
instructions and self-addressed container is to be
supplied by your Sullair dealer at start-up. The user
will receive an analysis report with recommenda-
tions.

3.4 APPLICATION GUIDE

Sullair encourages the user to participate in a fluid
analysis program with the fluid suppliers. This could
result in a fluid change interval differing from that
stated in the manual. Contact your Sullair dealer for
details.
